Main purpose of industrial lighting fixtures is to light the specified work area effectively. Light sources of traditional industrial lights use HPS, MH or halogen. They have some disadvantages.
Low efficiency. Efficiency of HPS and halogen fixtures are low. Electricity cost is much higher.
2. Short Lifespan. Most of MH and halogen fixtures can only used in 1-2 years.
3. Delay on start.
4. Heat problem. They do give off quite a bit of heat however, so this is something to bear in mind if you are considering using them indoors. So, lots of places need high bay lights. It increases costs.
LED industrial lighting uses LED (light-emitting-diode) as light sources. It's solid state lighting. These solid state devices have no moving parts, no fragile glass environments, no UV, no IR, no mercury, no toxic gasses, and no filament. There is nothing to break, rupture, shatter, leak, or contaminate.
Because LED technology improved, it was more and more popular in lighting industry. More and more fixtures use LED as light sources. Benefits are as following:
1. Energy Saving
Initial efficiency of LEDs is over 100lm / w. The maintain efficiency is over 80lm / w (5000K). Comparing with HPS lamps, it can save 50% -70% energy comparing with halogen lamps, it can save over 80% energy. It's not a small cost in one year.
2. Eco-Friendly
LED industrial lights do not contain UV, IR, Lead or mercury.
3. More Choice on Color
Because of LED 'ability, color can be white, warm white, red, blue or green.
4. Design Flexibility
LEDs are typically much smaller than conventional light sources, allowing for dramatically different lighting designs capitalizing on the unobtrusiveness of the source. Designing.
5. Long Lifespan
The lifespan can be more than 50,000 hours.
6. No delay on start
Therefore, I believe you know why LED industrial lights are good choice.
